It sounds like a cool idea, but I don't think it's the best answer to our "problem" (sorry, had to use the corny pun. xD). Tarsky's idea was cool, and it would be nice to let you know you helped, but do you need to know you were best answer? No offense but that sounds kinda cocky to me if you want the PM, because you should feel good just about helping, not about getting any notifacation of it. It's like saving someone who's near death or in a fire. Do you want a medal or honor when you get out, or the great feeling that you saved a life?
I agree with you, Danielle! Although it is a nice idea, I don't really think it's necessary! But great suggestion!
I get what people are saying that a PM isn't necisary and that just helping someone should be enough-but hay-who wouldn't want to know that they ACTUALLY really helped someone?
If you hand a person down on their luck a $5.00 bill you have the satisfaction of knowing you maybe helped him/her. What if that $5.00 enabled him/her to get a suit and get the job they were hoping to get and changed their life forever? Isn't that even BETTER to know? How would you know that you truly helped that person unless you were notified?
Now, I know that scenario isn't anything like helping someone on WI-but the idea is the same-there is nothing wrong with wanting to know you ACTUALLY helped someone instead of TRYING to help them...

Good idea and rep to you!
I've been trying to say that all along! It's nice to know that you tried to help someone, but it's even better to know that you actually did help them. Whenever somebody chooses my answer as the best answer, I send them a PM thanking them for choosing my answer. That's one of the reasons this feature would be so much easier, so I don't have to keep checking the threads!
Thanks for posting here, and thank you for the rep points!

I could tell that is what you had in mind-just trying to explain it better...There are quite a few responses that make it appear that you are out for glory-and I don't see it that way at all. If that were the case you would have not requested a pm-but a front page headline! I was quite frankly taken aback at some of the responses that you recieved-which to me sounded quite high and mighty.
Good luck, and I hope they think about implementing your idea!

Yeah, I did see those responses, and I was also taken aback. I'm not doing it for glory, just so I could thank the person and know I actually helped someone. I was kind of shocked at some of the responses. I do agree with you; if that were the case, it would be a front page headline!
Thank you so much for being so kind, and have a great day!
